Preaching Julia to biologists

The main reason I’m not showcasing some of the top packages (listed in posts such as What package[s] are state-of-the art OR attract you to Julia, and make you stay there (not easily replicateable in e.g. Python, R, MATLAB)?) is that most/all of those packages are relevant to people in: machine learning, systems biology, numerical analysis, etc. The people I’m dealing with are not working in any of those fields. It doesn’t mean they wouldn’t be able to appreciate what Julia did in those cases, but it would take as much work to explain Julia’s contribution as it would to explain the (I think, pretty simple) concepts already in my presentation. But please, let me know if I’ve missed some obvious packages!!!

And again, thank you all for the awesome feedback!!!
